My tutor sessions revolve around the student's needs and requirements from the outset, by finding out what the student feels they most need to cover during that session. I encourage the student to do the majority of talking, and create an atmosphere in which they feel comfortable asking questions at any point. More often than not, the student - through...

My idea of tutoring might differ from the conventional idea. Many might consider a tutor is a person whom assists the student to fill in the blanks on what s/he misses during lessons, or someone to help when the student couldn’t do their homework. Yet knowledge could be acquire from readings. Certainly, a tutor could be doing those as well, but...

I believe communication is key – I will discuss a student’s goals and motivations for tutoring and create lesson plans accordingly. I will check in at the end of each lesson to ensure progress is being made and the student finds the sessions useful. My approach to tutoring Law involves encouraging students to critically engage with the subject and consider each...

I offer flexible Skype-based support to fit around the hectic schedules of the most ambitious students. My teaching is targeted and bespoke, with lessons planned in response to students' specific long- and short-term goals, dovetailing, where applicable, with what's covered at school. For students in Mandarin, I particularly enjoy helping students develop their spoken communication skills (speaking, pronunciation, listening) and confidence...

I believe that Practice Makes Perfect! However, repeated and regular exercise is just a waste of time without an efficient and effective studying method, especially for maths! My class is exercise-based, with many useful methods and tricks that you never realize before. e.g. I could help them categorize the questions that they always have problem with. Then you will be able...

I specialise in making learning fun. Learning is far more difficult in a subject that you do not enjoy and so my approach is to inject some life into the subject, reward creativity and nurture ideas. Negativity has no place in my lessons and there will be no such thing as a silly question....

In my opinion anyone can acquire knowledge and skills via effective, interesting and persistent learning.

Fun and engaging, there is little point in undertaking a lesson unless it is engaging for student, for example offering the student to pick heir preferred topic for the commencing week. I always find that if you are learning something, and you have a passion for learning, it becomes much more exciting. I also love to take the non-authoritarian approach...

Once I have established what the student is hoping to achieve , I will tailor the tutoring experience to their ability and around their personal goals. I try to explain concepts by putting them in a context they understand, and by constantly asking questions, I can discover their weaknesses and eliminate them. I always ensure they have a solid understanding before...
